Black amassed 275 all-purpose yards and scored an offensive and defensive touchdown Friday. Fellow junior Carter Ledkins was a part of five touchdowns.

“Everybody doubted us, and we proved them wrong,” Ledkins said. “They said we were going 5-5, but we’re 13-0.”

Black intercepted two passes, returning one for a touchdown, and caught six passes for 128 yards, including a 57-yard score. Ledkins ran for 172 yards and four scores, plus threw for 193 yards and a TD.

“It was one of my best games,” Black said. “The best, actually.”

Ledkins ran for two fourth-quarter touchdowns to give the Vols a 41-28 lead. The Rebels (9-4) scored with 1:44 to play on a P.J. McDonald pass to Justin Jones.

Jones also had an 83-yard kickoff-return TD. McDonald threw for three scores.
